To all you laser welders out there, I finally was able to come to
terms that the laser welder is primarily not going to damage
diamonds when retipping. I have been really pleased on how easy it
is to retip ( on diamonds), but you have no room for error on other
stones. I have experimented with pulse shapping(left high–right
tappers low) which seems to direct the laser towards the prong. Has
anyone mastered the retip and if so please share your knowledge. It
will be greatly appriciated.
